awake in texas with a fear of musicals

Per the end of Farscape Season Three (I snuck in the first four of season four and--I really don't want to talk about it yet, but I think I watched them from the wrong perspective or something? What the hell?), Child is on a Glee rampage, so we are hitting season one and two in no particular order and God do I hate Amazon Prime free streaming or I wouldn't be in this mess right now. He's scheduled in Season Four viewing sometime in the middle of the Glee medley and Sanctuary season one and SG1 season one (not streaming; sadly, I have them already).

In other words, I have a really uncomfortable feeling that I will start to expect Sanctuary to break into song if Child keeps me on this media extravaganza for any length of time.

You may now return to more interesting reading. I'm suffering from multi-genre overload.

I support Child's viewing choices *points to icon*.

...also, I seem to have missed ever watching Santuary. That's going to have to go on my list of stuff-to-watch-when-I-find-it.

I... have nothing of importance to say, but I wanted to use my Kurt/Blaine icon. (For some reason, my Glee icons are all on DW and I keep reading/replying to fic on LJ. I don't get to use these icons as much as the cuteness of these two deserves.)

So say we all. The start of season 4 is a bit of a mess, really. The network was wanting them to do more standalones...

To some extent. IMO it never gets quite as good as season 3, but yes, it does improve significantly.

We almost gave up on the series when we hit the rocky patch you're in, but then it went back to the plot. If the problem is really "wrong perspective" I can't imagine what's the right one...

There was a musical episode of Sanctuary a few weeks ago and it was actually quite good. Probably one of the better eps from season 4 and the back half of season 3.

Watching that much Glee has got to feel like overdosing on Halloween candy. It seemed like a good idea at the time, all sweet and gooey, but at the end you're overwhelmed and feeling a little sick from mixing too many things.

Humm... they did a few weeks ago. Not even close to either the Buffy musical or the Xena musical episode but not really bad. Amanda Tapping has a really good voice. Who knew. But yeah, they broke into song on Sanctuary. Colour me surprised.

S4 wrong perspective - elucidate, please. ETA: Strike that, sorry, see your notice of not yet ready to discuss.
Ahem. At one point, the PTB of FS contemplated a musical ep, which perhaps fortunately, did not occur.

Sanctuary singing - *laughs and laughs*

I am not feeling the new big bad of cleavage sweat, short version. And I am hating gramma puppet like whoa. I just don't want to set it in stone if by mid-season I am loving it more. Season three was so good, it could be season four is fine and I'm being grumpy.

Season 4 is... uneven. Gramma characterization is also uneven.

You should probably start preparing yourself for season 4, episode 8 of Sanctuary now. :)

...oh God. You know how fast he's sweeping me through eps? I MAY SEE THIS BEFORE CHRISTMAS.

Uhm, relax? I think it's quite a nice episode:-) *and that's me stopping watching shows that did a musical episode before - I still love Sanctuary*

Glee often leaves one with an unnerved and vaguely nauseous sensation. It's that mixture of awesome and OH MY GOD, WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA????

From: [identity profile] imwalde.livejournal.com Date: 2011-12-13 12:38 am (UTC)
The beginning of Farscape season 4 is...not the greatest. There was heavy interference, by all accounts, from the network, who wanted more standalones so new viewers could jump right in, so the cast is separated and (re)introduced one by one. How well that worked is another story. But, on the other hand, 1812!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥

1812 is da bomb. :)

1812 is possibly the most sympathetic character in the entire series.

Who survived the series, you mean? *g* Alas, poor One-Eye, we knew him for far too short a time. I went on a DRD toy kick a couple of years ago, bought up bunches of 'em, including one that had been modified to look like One-Eye, as well as the 1812 model, and even an unpainted black one, which is clearly some visitor from a far more martial Leviathan. :D
